Chelsea flop on his way to Serie A?

Chelsea flop Alejandro Garnacho could be on his way to Serie A next year, according to Tuttomercato.

The Argentine joined the Blues from Manchester United last year and had a disappointing debut season.

He was loaned out to Villa over the summer with a conditional obligation to buy, but he is already out of favour.

Manager Unai Emery has acknowledged that he does not suit his plans, which suggests he could move on soon.

Villa have no break clause in the loan deal, and it would require them to mutually agree with Chelsea for a termination.

If that happens this winter, Garnacho could be on his way to Serie A, with Juventus and Napoli among those interested.

Napoli have held a long-term interest in the Argentine and could make a genuine approach for his services this winter.

Juventus are likewise keen on the Argentine, but both clubs may propose loan deals with an option to buy next summer.
